Diseño e Implementación de un Prototipo de Red de Sistema de Comunicación Monitoreo de Nutrientes PH- EC y Control de Temperatura y Flujo de Agua Usando Tecnología Móvil GSM/GPRS para Cultivos Hidropónicos.

Abstract

This thesis objective was to remote control a lettuce hydroponic greenhouse, through SMS messages generated by an application on a mobile device which controls important parameters. For this communication system prototype important devices such as an Arduino were used to program the whole system, for data collection sensors such as pH, EC, fs300a, water level, temperature were used and through these the actuators activation as a fan, water pump lamp alkalinity, and electro conductivity in hydroponics. At this communication stage prototype and its administrator a shield GSM was used the GSM Simcom SIM900 Quad Band GSM /GPRS model, which has beneficial features within the system and is compatible with the Arduino. The experimental and descriptive methods were used, since Science and Technology contents were used in the area of Telecommunication incorporated to agriculture to provide a more appropriate treatment of crops both in economically-productive and environmental terms, with results in a 100% crops growth using this system. This system is intended to provide an option for optimizing resources such as time, land, and human factor, to obtain a good quality product, therefore contribute to the productive matrix development.
